MARDI GRAS

OF THE PACIFIC

There are only two places on the face of the planet where Halloween is a total blast.

Key West, Florida

Lahaina, Mau'i, Hawai'i

The local cable access channel, AKAKU TV, video tapes the entire nights events and plays an editted version back in December. Here is a brief snippet.



Private jets are stacked up at the airport. People come from around the world to celebrate Halloween in Lahaina.



"Let's all be careful out there!"

HALLOWEEN

HOW DO YOU CELEBRATE IT?

I realize that Halloween is a big night for keikis in the USA, but I am curious. Those of you who read me from the rest of the world, how do you celebrate this non-holiday event. Or are ghosts, goblins and things that go bump in the night strictly an American custom?

For those from America, what is your fondest or scariest memory of Halloween?
